Show original supplier description
As the first manufacturer to offer this upgrade, CTS Turbo utilizes mandrel-bent aluminum piping and precision CNC-machined flanges for superior construction. This design ensures increased air flow to the turbocharger, contributing to faster spool times and an improved turbo sound. Constructed from durable aluminum, this inlet pipe is a robust replacement for the factory plastic component, offering enhanced longevity. It features a sleek black powder coat finish with a laser-etched CTS logo. The CNC machined flanges guarantee a precise fit, while the mandrel bent piping ensures smooth, unrestricted airflow. Installation is straightforward, typically taking about 10 minutes with basic hand tools. It replaces the restrictive factory inlet, ensuring that a free-flowing intake can deliver its full potential to the turbocharger. The applications list includes various 2015+ Volkswagen Golf Mk7 models (1.8T/2.0T, GTI, R) and 2014+ Audi A3 and S3 models.
